Using two figure of 8 mics can result in a highly successful recording of a singer and guitar at the same time, by reducing phase problems.

Marcel, let’s face it, is a bit of a genius. He has spent most of the last two decades working with Tori Amos, so you only have to dig into your music collection to hear his recording credentials for yourself.
In this masterclass, Marcel shares the way he thinks about recording, what issues he takes into consideration and throws in some serious theory at the same time.

Watching Marcel’s classes is always a revelation.

Many thanks to London School of Sound for use of their studios, Red Dog Music for the loan of some rather lovely gear, and to Astrid Madberg for her delightful performance.
